Key FOB Won't Program

[Bikeman]

When I bought the 97', it had no remotes with it.

I just got one from CDan, part # 08191-00870.

I confirmed I have the Toyota VIP RS 3000 system.

With the key "ON", and the green button depressed on the unit under the seat, and holding, the red light on the dash is NOT coming on. I have tried many times. I can feel the green button detent, so I don't know what is wrong.

Check to make sure your receiver is still connected. If the truck ever had an aftermarket alarm installed they might have disconnected the factory receiver.

2 wire looms are plugged in, seem secure. I have searched high and low, and I am baffled. Does the alarm share circuits with anything else? I have checked all fuses and everything else works.

Close all the doors when you try it if you had any open during previous programming attempts.

Just tried that, no worky.

I bought an aftermarket remote and programmed it, but I didn't use any green button. The unit under the seat had a small hole in the side that had to be pressed with a paperclip. It is a RS 3000 too. Maybe you are pressing in the wrong spot ?

Does anyone have a link to the troubleshooting guide for the RS 3000? The links I found are dead, and Slee's is for the RS3200, unless it is the same?

It appears that there may not be getting power to the RS 3000. Does anyone know of the fuse location for it. I may remove it and peek inside.

I can't even get the red light next to the piezo on the dash to light up for the key-on sequence for auto door lock programming.

The auto door locks worked until about 3 days after I had the truck detailed. Maybe they got something wet when the carpets were cleaned?

Be sure to thank Mr Slee and Beowulf on your way out.

Got it working! I think it was a bad connection where one of the three harnesses plug into the RS 3000. Now it's time for .

The links on my web site are not dead (as of today). Christo offered to host a copy of the files on his web site. His captions are wrong; the manuals are for the RS3000 alarm.
